	HOAGBA: Senegal Doves
		Senegal Doves are known for their desire to nest, and wild caught birds have started nesting within a few hours after being trapped and caged.
		The doves are hardy, but should be given protection from the elements in northern areas of the country as they come from a hot area of the world.
		The doves are referred to in several texts as Laughing Doves, a name probably given them because of their rather soft, five or six note musical call which Goodwin records as "coo-coo-coo-oo, cooroocoo-coo-coocoo".

		Still, the bird is far too slim and small to be a Laughing Dove, I would agree with sphinx79's first comment that this bird is a Laughing dove caged hybrid of some kind.
		In a hybrid with Laughing dove (if that is possible at all); I would expect that there are also some more clear Laughing dove characters;and I would expect the bill to be less colourfull, probably fl.
